I noticed this woman pedaling along Devine Street and managed to flag her down for a photo. For cycling, she told me, the right clothing is more about padded shorts than a vivid colour, though hot pink (as I can attest) does make her more visible. We also chatted about helmets, the bane of
my riding experience--but important for safety, I know. "A
good fit makes all the difference," Robin told me.
She'd just traded in an old, ill-fitting helmet for this new one. She showed me how the vented design keeps her noggin cool. Robin mentioned that she's a grandmother, to my surprise. She was bashful when I complimented her physique: "I guess all this cycling pays off."
